Typically does your beef cost more there North of the Border?

It's not how much you smoke but how many friends you make while doing it...

I think it all depends on where you live and where you shop. I live in a rural area where the choices are limited, therefore less competition higher prices.

Thanks Mike, I guess it's the same around here.  I live a bit rural also, just got to wait for the sales.

Hey-

Brisket around here, upstate NY runs 2.39/lb in the cryovac pack.  Keeps frozen forever.  Even on sale for 2.19, Spare ribs 1.99/lb, St. Louis Style.  Your brisket looks great.  I'm cooking one right now.  Up at 4:30 am.  Hope its done for dinner-

I was lucky, [:D] I caught Brisket on sale at WallyWorld the other day for $1.84/lb. Bought 2 of the suckers and after doing the trimming and reweighing I came up with about $1.96/lb. Cut them into flats & tips and vacuum sealed & froze about 3/4 of it.
"Duh udder piece be gittin' duh BS treatment now." after sitting for 36 hours with that nasty Ol' Texas BBQ rub all over it. Bill

Don't know if anyone else has had this experience at their local supermarket, but if I talk with one of the butchers and ask about getting a "Botson Butt","Tri-Tip", salmon fillets, "country style ribs", etc. because I smoke my own meat, it seems like they go out of their way to go in the back and cut me something special and give me a "sale price" on it--almost like it was a professional courtesy.  And if they don't have anything they think will fill the bill, they never try to sell me something "almost as good".  I had this happen twice now at local Stop + Shops.
